Reeet bought my bed last year, faux leather with metal bed rails etc.
Recently moved the bed and the centre rail bent slightly I've bent it back and now its really weak.
The bed and headboard etc is fine, so don't want to shed out for a new bed for the sake of a piece of box rail.
Anywhere I can get a new one? Surely someone has had this problem?

Basically smashed the mrs, and the adjustable legs are a bit shit so are a lot shorter than the they shoud be thus not supporting the centre rail.
Gary - Its the length of a matress (6ft est, maybe 2-3 inches more?) , I'll get some measurements. The box metal is less than an inch, just a square tube

I need to try and find the centre legs, they are just a piece of tubed metal with two pieces of straight metal on top which slot either side of the bed rail

Pics, measurements etc. There are loads of people on here handy with a welder that could knock something up in 5 min.

it is just the piece that supports the laths that go across the bed?
Mines wooden, and secure enough to smash anybodies mrs, i'd imagine.

It's the bit down the middle. What it is, is that the adjustable legs are a bit crap and I didn't unwind them enough, so when under load it goes lower than it should. Mines metal btw.

Tom G in a 'i've got a missus post' shocker
But I have the same issue with my bed, the feet on the middle post keep fucking moving and I end up with a bed with a dip in it.
